Wouldn't offer much more than $100 if it was ran for long with the heat shield missing on the left head.

Not sure but that could be an aluminum bore engine.My MW 16 twin was the same Blue/white with electric pto and was an aluminum bore block.It smoked bad because it had some pretty nasty grooves cut into the aluminum bore and the rings were about shot.Still ran ok but smoked alot and had alot of blow-by vapor coming out of both breathers.

Eventually I got a good deal on a Craftsman GTV18 Varidrive with a blown transaxle and swapped the engine in the monkey wards.She was a beast but sadly the deck was to rough to save.Rusted and cracked from the spindle the whole way out across the chute.Couldn't find another deck shell so I sold it to someone that had a deck,plow and tiller from a non running Wards.He still has it and still uses it.

Thanks everyone i left him a Ph message wish me luck on that Engine. Im probably going to buy it anyhow and if the engine has to be rebuilt so be it! other wise i was thinking of a Cheap Chinese Diesel repower! has anyone done that yet on a Monkey
